Sensor for detecting biological electro-magnetic signal and the diagnostic device using the same
The invention relates to a material for the detection of biological electro-magnetic signals made of a epidermis of a living organism and a diagnostic device using the same, and more particularly, to a material for the detection of biological electro-magnetic signals made of a epidermis of a living organism, through drying is one stage, also selecting is another stage of production, and a diagnostic device using the same. The material of the invention has an effect of detecting biological electro-magnetic signals. Accordingly, the material for the detection of biological electro-magnetic signals of the invention can be used for manufacturing a diagnostic device for detecting biological electro-magnetic signals non-invasively as well as effectively used in diagnosis in cases where biological electro-magnetic signals are changed by cancer, inflammations due to immunodeficiency and so on.
1. A method of manufacturing a material for the detection of biological electro-magnetic signals, comprising steps of:
a) drying an epidermis separated from a living organism;
b) measuring a capacitance on the dried epidermis to select the epidermis, wherein the epidermis separated from the living organism is selected from a group consisting of a scale of a fish, a scale or horny scale layer of a reptile, a modified skin of a bird, a cuticle of an insect, a cuticle of a mollusk, a cuticle of a shellfish, a feather, and a shell or horny scale layer of a crustacean.
2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: immersing the epidermis into water.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step a) comprises drying the epidermis for 1 to 48 hours under a pressure of 0.5 kg/cm 2 to 10 kg/cm 2 and then drying the epidermis for 1 to 96 hours without pressure.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step b) comprises of selecting the dried capacitance of the epidermis that is in a range from 0.1 pF to 100 pF.
5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: measuring a conductivity of the epidermis to select the epidermis.
6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the conductivity of the epidermis is in a range from 0.01 nS to 20 nS.
7. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising: measuring a permittivity of the epidermis to select the epidermis.
8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the permittivity is in a range from 0.1 F/m to 50 F/m.
9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epidermis has a thickness in a range from 0.01 mm to 10 mm and a diameter in a range from 0.1 mm to 100 mm by the step b).
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epidermis separated from the living organism is a scale of a fish.
11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the fish is selected from a group consisting of carp, a crucian carp, salmon and trout.
12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epidermis separated from the living organism is a scale or skin of a reptile.
13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the reptile is selected from a group consisting of a turtle, a snapping turtle, a crocodile and a snake.
14. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epidermis separated from the living organism is a cuticle of an insect.
15. The method according to claim 14 , wherein the insect is selected from a group consisting of a beetle, a grasshopper, a gold bug and a ladybug.
16. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epidermis separated from the living organism is a shell of a crustacea.
17. The method according to claim 16 , wherein the crustacea is selected from crab, shrimp and crayfish.
18. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the epidermis is a scale transformed from a dermis, or a retrogressed or cornified scale.
